“What Did Jesus Tell Us to Do?”

WELCOME! We thank the Lord God Almighty for answering our prayer requests by
adding more and more new members to our ministry this past week! Let Him send
us the poor in spirit, so we may lead them to Christ! Let Him send us the poor
in food, so that we can feed them!

Hungry
stomachs have no ears! We love you all and encourage you to bring a friend on
Thursdays and Sundays! Amen! Let us worship Our Lord God for all His goodness,
and send a sweet fragrance up to heaven for Him!

To be an answer to prayer, FB each person yourself and make direct
arrangements. To GOD be the GLORY, AMEN!

us so that we can bless them! Amen!

PRAISE
REPORT: (no one answers, and one day we shall have many PRAISE REPORTS).

PREPARATION
FOR HOLY COMMUNION: If you have
watched my video on Holy Communion, are Born Again, have forgiven your
neighbor, and wish to participate so that you are not weak, sick, or die, please
gather your bread and wine now.

When thou hast made an end of tithing
all the tithes of thine increase the third year, which is the
year of tithing, and hast given it unto the Levite, the stranger, the
fatherless, and the widow, that they may eat within thy gates, and be filled;

And he had prepared for him a great
chamber, where aforetime they laid the meat offerings, the frankincense, and
the vessels, and the tithes of the corn, the new wine, and the
oil, which was commanded to be given to the Levites, and the
singers, and the porters; and the offerings of the priests.

Then Jesus beholding him loved him, and
said unto him, One thing thou lackest: go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt
have treasure in heaven: and come, take up the cross, and followme.

Before God, each one of us needs to decide what “kind”
of Christian we are going to be. Yes, in the beginning, we start off as “baby
Christians” and know very little about the laws of the Old Testament vs the
grace of God of the New Testament.

As we grow up though, in the Word of God, we are
responsible for the teachings that we learn. And we are responsible to actually
learn the Word of God, since that is
our Sword of the Spirit, our only offensive weapon against the evil spiritual
forces that we fight.

God orders us to pay 10% of our income, the first and the best 10% of the oils and the vines of the Old Testament, as a
sacrifice to the priests of then. Christ reinforced the intention behind
giving, to give out of cheerfulness, not out of obligation or for others to
see, but for God to know and to cherish us as we strive to please Him. Lord,
bless us in our tithes and offerings, so that we may bless others.

I joke and say that lots of Christians go to church
while watching their watches, to make sure they are “outa there!” in exactly
one hour. I know this because I used to be this way, and so did lots of my
friends. And their parents.

And then church would be over, and you know what?

It was a “Mad Dash” and “Each Car to Defend Itself” in
the silly PARKING LOT just less than 5 minutes after service ended. And it was
un.be.lieve.able to hear horns honking, people screaming at one another, and
cars racing to be the next in line. No one wanted to let the red van back out,
because no one wanted to be the behind a van and be ‘blinded.’ What happened to
God in 5 minutes?

Is God just for the building?

Is God just for an hour?

Is God in your house when all the doors are closed?

Is Christ just there for forgiveness, when we need him?
Or do we have a daily, constant relationship with him to count on?

Don’t you get aggravated when that same friend only
calls you on the phone when she or he needs something from you?

“Oh, it’s Margaret calling,” you think. “She only calls
when she wants something.”

Do you want to be “one of those people” to God? Or do
you want to be “different?”

In this scenario, “different” is really “normal.”
Mature Christians thank God for every day in the morning, thank Him for food at
breakfast, and thank Him and Praise him despite all the storms in life, all day
and all night long. Why?

Because mature Christians KNOW God.

They trust Him. They have a relationship with Him. They
rely on him with an unwavering faith that no one can talk them out of... Christ
really is their Cornerstone, their foundation of spirituality.

This video is definitely “tongue-in-cheek,” but it gets
my point across:

On behalf of others: I thank God, whom I serve from my forefathers with pure
conscience, that withoutceasing I have
remembrance of thee in my prayers night and day;

Do you long to know God more?

Who do you pray for?

When someone is dying of cancer on Facebook, are you
one of those people that simply say, “Praying?” Or do you actually PRAY a
prayer for them in the Comment? Think about it.These are the fine shades of gray we need to see.

Has Christ turned your darkness into purest white snow?
Do you realize how Jesus paid it all for you and me? Really?

He had YOUR heart and soul in his hand and what did he
do with it? He saved you! He set you free! Free to love Him or not love Him.
THAT’s how much He wants the LOVE to come from YOU. He thinks you are so
beautiful, and He wants you as His Bride.

INVITATION AND RENEWAL PRAYER: If you have not yet said this prayer to
accept Jesus as your Lord and Personal Savior, you can do so now, TO BE BORN
AGAIN:

“Lord, I have not accepted
You fully into my heart, or I did once long ago, and have strayed. I ask that
you forgive my sins, enter my heart, and stay with me forevermore as my
Personal Savior. I thank you that by grace alone, and your death on the cross,
I can enter Heaven to be together with you.”

If you have said this
prayer in earnest, please stay after the service for Counsel and make sure we
get a Mentor for you, so that we can disciple you from a ‘baby’ Christian to a
‘fully-grown’ Christian who is then able to lead. We then go out to all ends of
the earth, spreading the Gospel or supporting those that do so. Amen!

Look at this young girl and her deep love for Christ.
What does she want to do with her love for God?

She wants to sing and write praises to Him! She wants
to share Him with you! She wants to spread The Word! See:

PREPARATION FOR HOLY
COMMUNION: Until I
studied it myself, I did not realize how seriously God judges us for taking
Holy Communion. It is Holy. We are not to take it if we are sinning, or it is
blasphemy against yourself, and the Lord.

DONATIONS and NEEDS:“Will
YOU ROB GOD? You rob Him in your tithes and offerings.” If you want to give,
you will find a way. Amen!

NEED: Jahanzaiblove
Jahanzaib, from Bangkok, who has an urgent need
of $100 for food for his 2 children. Please be in direct contact with him for arrangements.
Please let someone do SOMETHING for his children, dear Lord. This is Week #3 of
asking. Amen.

NEED: Aamir Aslam and his
remote village, who have sick orphans in urgent need of $100 for medicines and
foo. Please be in direct contact
with him for arrangements. Please let someone do SOMETHING for his children,
dear Lord. This is Week #3 of asking. Amen.

NEED: Steven Mwesigwa needs $350/mo to feed the orphans. May people
“adopt” a child for $30/mo. Two children
were hospitalized, and this dipped into the food account, so please let it be
restored by about $300, Lord. In Jesus’ name, we had one donor give $60 and
another give $30, and let us keep on giving! Amen!

CLOSING PRAYER BY KIRSTIE: Dear Lord, we come to you at this hour
of need to ask you to make a way when we see no way.

We
ask you Lord guide and hold us closely to your side. Please give us love,
strength and courage for each new day. We ask you to lead us in your steps to
the doors of Heaven when we take our last breath.

We
ask you, Lord to send your Angels to watch over our loved ones when we come
into your arms to be by your side. Let our souls find peace of mind, let our
hearts beat for you Lord. We lift our heads and arms up high to Worship you
Lord. In Jesus’ Name We Pray, Amen!

Do you accept the Lord
Jesus Christ as the Son of God, into your heart?

If you answer “yes” to
all these questions, you are now a Born Again Christian! We love you! Welcome
to the body of Christ! Confess it with your mouth, or write it here! You must
say it out loud! Praise the Lord!

You may Go now, and
Spread the Word of God to all the Ends of the Earth!
